Abstract:
In Kane County and vicinity, instream sediment data were available for only a few stations, and none covered more than two years. Thus two sites at established USGS streamflow gaging stations were selected for preconstruction background data collection. This report presents the water quality and suspended sediment data collected from March 1987 through November 1988 for Ferson Creek near St. Charles and for Blackberry Creek near Yorkville.
